Queer Co-incidence in This County
As to Naaes
Washington, April 12:?Rep

ditional free delivery route in Williamsburg
county. He did not
make much progress and today he
called again to see Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General DeGraw. When
informed that the railroad station
was named Bryan and the postoffice
Taft, Mr DeGraw said there
won Id be no more delay, and that
the ronle would be placed in operation
June 1 without fail.
Mr Ellerbe was further questioned
by Mr DeGraw as to why Taft and
Bryan were figuring so prominently
down in Williamsburg, and he
wanted to know if the postmaster at
Taft was not named Roosevelt.
Mr Ellerbe could not give him the
information, but promised to ascertain
the facts immediately. Mean
time preparations are being made to
start the route on the date named.
?Seits <? Courier.
[The co-incideuce above noted is
striking, in view of the fact that W
H Taftand W J Bryan will probably
be the opposing candidates for president
in the next campaigu. It la
merely a co-incidence, however, as
'every one knows who is familiar
*.w:th the circumstances.
The station was originally Green
niii ana is situated six miles east 01
Lane. Thepostoffice bore the euphonious
appellative of Greens.
A few years ago as a compliment
to Watermau 8 Taft, one of the big
bugs of the Atlantic Coast Corporation
of Georgetown, the name of
'both station and postoffice were
* changed to Taft.
iBut the man who has built np
Taft aDd developed the surrounding
country is Hon William D Bryan;
hence the people of the vicinity,
in giving honor where they deemed
Eit due, demanded that the station be
nam d Bryan,and it was in bishont
or that the change came about, and
not with any political significance
whatever.? Ed The Record.]
That languid, lifeless feeling that
comes with spring and early summer,
can be quickly changed to a

The Restorative is a
i genuine tonic to tired, rundown
nerves.and but a fewdosesare needed
to satisfy the user that Dr Shoop's
Restorative is actually reaching that
tired spot. Tne indoor life of winter
nearly always leads to sluggish
bowels, and to sluggish circulation
in general. The customery lack of
exercise aud outdoor air ties up the

And it covers near an acre;

A president of the United j
States will be elected this year.
Who is he and who is the man
whom he will beat? Nobody
yet knows, but the Thrice-a
Week World will tell you every
step and every detail of what
promises to be a campaign of
the most absorbing interest. It
may not tell you what you hope
but it will tell you what is. The
Thrice-a-Week Wt^ld long ago
[established a character for impartiality
and fearlessness in
the publicacion of news, and
this it will maintain. If you
want the news as it really is
subscribe to the Tbrice-a-Week
edition of the New York world,
which comes to you ever}' other
day,except Sunday, and is thus
practically a daily at the price
of a weekly.
The Thnce-a-Week World's
regular subscription price is
only $1.00 per year, and this
pays for 150 papers. We offer
this unequalled newspaper and
The County Record together
for one year for $1.75.
The regularsubscription price
of the two- papers is $2.00.
Bring Your Cotton Scedr
We have closed down our
ginneries for the season because
there is no more cotton to gin.
We are paying $2? per ton for
good, sound, dry cotton seed,.,
delivered at our mill.
To those who do not care to I'
sell their seed for cash we are!
offering a strictly high grade
meal in exchange. Our rate of
exchange at the mill is 16C0 lbs.
of meal for one ton. of seed. It
is a conceded fact cotton
spkY rr.eal i* a cheaDer and
mo~ effecthe fertilizer than
cotton seed. According to
chemical analysis of each* SS6
pounds of cotton seed meal
are equivalent to 2000 pounds
of cotton seed, but owing
to the superior mechanical j
condition of meal, it is safe to;
assume that 800 pounds of meal;
are the full equivalent to one ton.
of cotton seed, therefore, whatever
excess above 800 pounds of
meal the farmer gets in exchange
for a ton of seed is so much clear
profit to him in comparison with
using the ton of seed directly as
a fertilizer. You can readily see
that by exchanging your seed
with us you realize nearly 200
per cent on the transaction. J
Bring your seed to us'and not
make the mistake of getting
inferior meal elsewhere in exchange.
Our meal is open for inspection.

Subtraction.
The teacher was givin ; a lesson
in subtraction. It had b ken them
several terms to master the mysteries
of addition, and in this rule
she found them no less dull.
Driven to desperation by the stupidity
of their replies, 6lie rashly
promised three whole pennies to the
child who gave her the smartest answer.
"Uf course," she explained for the
twentieth time, "yon can only subtract
things of the same name. For
instance, you can't take eight tables
from sixteen years or four horses
from sevenpcnce."
A hand shot up at the back of the
class, and the teacher broke off to
inauire what was the matter.
' Please, mm," squeaked a small
boy'a voice, "can't yon take three
pennies from one purse, then?"
He won the prize.

Every time I eome to Paris 1 am
struck with the unreal appearance
of the town, especially in the lesa
busy quarter whieh lies all round
the Champs Elyseee. The tall,
blank gray houses, with their gray
wooden shutters, look no more real
than the cardboard houses in a stage
play. Moreover, it seems impossible
than any one is alive inside the
houses. You never see a face at a
window, and no one ever?seems to
emerge through the greri; brown
doors?doors which are obviously
made of painted cardboard and not
pf wood. The grayness, the monotony,
the absence of eolors, the comparative
silence, are incredible after
the warm colors, the red brown |
skies, the portentous, seething j

Imaginntior Left Itmreciated*
A Gerrnantown woman discovered
one morning recently that her
maid Nora had broken the thermometer
that hung in the- reception
ball.
"Well, Nora," sighed the mistress
of the house in a resigned war,
^you've managed to break the thermometer,
haven't you?"
"Yis, mom," replied" the maid in
? tone equally resigned. "And now,
mum, well jist have to take the
weather as it comes!"?Harper'i
Weekly.
A Good Answer.
"I have a clerk," a New York
wholesale merchant remarked the
other day, "and he sometimes manages
to hand back a rather good one,
though, as a rule, he is little short
of stupid apparently. As a matter
of fact, I suppose he i3 one of those
dreamy sort of chaps, and you never
can tell about that kind.
"I was sorry after I said it," he
continued, ''but recently be had
made a most unnecessary blunder,
and I lost my temper.
"'I say, Jones/ 1 sneered, 'you'd
make a pretty good clerk, maybe, if
you had a little more sense!'
"He- looked at rne for a minute,
with a sort of half smile. Didn't it
ever occur to you, Mr. Brown,' he
said, 'that if I had a little more
sense I wouldn't be a clerk at all ?'"
?New York Tribune.
Unnecessary Qu??tion.
Some time ago an elderly gentleman
was cycling down a narrow
street in a country town when a dog
suddenly rushed out from a doorway
and, getting under his wheel,
threw him on the ground in a sitting
position. The dog, seeming to enjoy
the situation, barked playfully.
A boy who was passing at the same
time stood calmly staring at the performance
for a minute or two and
then inquired in a quiet voice, 'Did I
you fall off, mister ?"
' "Of course I did," said the old
gentleman angrily, while getting up
and endeavoring to brush the dust
from hi3 clothes.
"Ah," replied the lad as he stroll-:
ed away; "I thought you couldn't
have sat down in the road just to
play with the dog."?London Telegraph.
